Pumpkin pancakes are a fall breakfast staple and an irresistible breakfast option for any pumpkin lover! There’s something magical about the combination of warm spices, like cinnamon and nutmeg, with the natural sweetness of pumpkin puree. Our oldest daughter actually prefers these to regular pancakes year round. And the creamy cinnamon syrup that we drizzle on top is pure perfection. You can totally use any syrup you like like classic maple or my regular buttermilk caramel syrup, but the extra cinnamon spice is out-of-this world and worth the five minutes of extra effort....

I love making quick and nutritious breakfasts that my kids will actually eat and these Cottage Cheese Pancakes have been in regular rotation lately. They’re an easy toddler breakfast idea that you can make and serve in the moment, or reheat on a future morning.

I love them since they are filling and satisfying, but they also have a really tender texture....

We are a house divided on red velvet cake. Some of us love it, while others turn up their noses at it for being inferior to chocolate cake. Food normally brings us together, but every now and then it proves divisive, and this cake flavor just happens to be one of those controversial desserts for some people. But if you DO love it, this easy red velvet cake recipe is made from scratch and is pretty darn incredible....

Seafood Pasta Salad brings filling pasta together with light seafood, for the perfect summer dish that’s quick and easy to prepare, and a surefire hit for any event or gathering.

After a few tries and increasing the veggies and sauce, this version got rave reviews from my taste testers!...

Making your own salsa is super easy to do, and the results are so incredible. It’s so much more flavorful than the bottled stuff, and you can adjust it to meet your exact tastes. There’s no better time to make it than at the end of summer, when tomatoes are ripe, juicy, and bursting with flavor. This salsa is made with traditional ingredients: with a thick roasted tomato base, hot peppers, a healthy dose of garlic, sweet red onion, lime juice to brighten the flavors and let them sing, and cilantro for a fragrant citrusy fresh finish....

This deliciously fun and fresh melon salad is both light and satisfying. It is a refreshing salad that’s perfect for hot summer days. The juicy watermelon, sweet cantaloupe, and honeydew melon are extra fun when scooped into small round balls using a melon baller, but they are just as tasty when cut into small cubes if you don’t have a small scooper handy. The fruit on its own is fantastic, but the combination of lime juice, honey, and fresh mint in the dressing adds a refreshing tangy lime dressing that enhances the sweet fruit....

The fresh herbs add a brightness that balances the richness of the Parmesan and butter....

Switch Witch Switch Witch is one of the newer holiday traditions that we probably didn’t have as kids and it’s become quite popular around Halloween. The switch witch concept is that kids invite the witch (no worries, she’s nice!) to take some of the extra candy stash they don’t want and leave a “healthier” treat in its place. Or one to replace unsafe candy in the case of food allergies. And while I’ve totally ignored the Elf on the Shelf, we sometimes use witch and find it to be super useful around Halloween—though I have changed it a lot to avoid sending mixed messages around candy....
